Sliding Fee Scale - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Elk Point, SD.

One form of payment assistance that some drug rehabilitation programs may give to their clients is an adjustable fee scale. If an individual can provide some degree of self-payment, these centers provide assistance on a case-by-case basis which can greatly reduce rehab costs so that it can be afforded by that particular person. How this typically works is the person will need to satisfy certain requirements for payment help and will have to provide proof of income, information about how many dependents they have, what their household overhead is, etc. Based off this family and financial information admissions administrators can determine what that client will need to pay, using a sliding scale.

As an example, if a person in Elk Point only earns $18K a year, has 3 dependent children they are supporting and 800 dollars in monthly bills they may only need to pay $1000 for treatment, whereas an individual who is single and makes $30,000 a year with no overhead may need to pay much more.

Even when sliding payment scales are available, clients may need to seek further financial help to afford the lesser amount. Intake staff can help people or their loved ones who are paying for treatment apply for financing from a third party lender, and in some cases this money doesn't need to be paid back until after the person completes rehabilitation.
